Moulton impressesI recently attended an event to meet and learn more about Seth Moulton. I was so impressed that I decided to write this letter and let others know about his run as the Democratic candidate for Congress. Seth is passionate, smart, energetic and someone who I feel would best represent us in Washington. It is time for a change. Don’t forget to vote on Tuesday September 9.Linda Wood, Winshaw RdAdvocating for MoultonSeth Moulton, currently a candidate in the Democratic primary for Congress in our District, is a young man whom we have known at every stage of his life—as a student in the Marblehead Schools through his seven years obtaining three Harvard degrees and during his four tours of duty in Iraq. Yet there was no prouder moment for us than one involving Seth and his family when he returned from his first combat tour.A train lover, Seth had travelled from California by train, and on the last leg had been joined in Springfield by his Uncle Andy, who had Down Syndrome. When the two of them arrived at South Station, the pride of Seth’s disabled Uncle in his nephew’s service was as overwhelming as it was heartwarming.With a plain and unobstructed vision, Andy saw Seth’s military service for what it was, a gift to him and to all of us. A decade later, Seth again offers us all the gift of his leadership, dedication, intelligence, and judgment. May the residents of our District vote with as clear and unobstructed a vision of the meaning of service and leadership.John and Susie Kane, Puritan Park
